Goose - Wild Goose

Sophie, Goose and friends go on a fun new adventure into the wild, looking for treasure and discovering the joys of nature! Laura Wall s often laugh-out-loud illustrations bring this cheeky, loveable character to life, making him an instant favourite with readers young and old. AGES: 2+ AUTHOR: Laura Wall was born in 1985 in Gravesend, Kent. She lived here until the age of sixteen when she moved to Devon, here her love of art was nurtured and by the end of the year she was exhibiting in galleries around the Southwest. After receiving a scholarship, Laura attended University at Aberystwysth University of Wales in 2003 where she studied illustration and wrote the book Goose for her final year dissertation. After graduating Laura worked in television, but after three years gave this up to pursue a career in art. Returning to the book Goose Laura wrote three years earlier, she showed it to publishers and was offered to write and illustrate a four part series about Goose by Award Publications Ltd. The four part series was published in 2012 and another two books, Goose on the Farm and Goose Goes Shopping, were published a year later.
